Thank you so much!

Hi Lynnbob. Sounds like he needs more professional support. See if he can get another appointment with his consultant to discuss his issues and get to dafne. In the meantime get him to take a look at the bertie course online. He can complete by himself and quite informative. I also found the...

Hi guys. I am changing from toujeo to levemir tonight and im so nervous in case it all goes badly wrong with hypos and hypers. Im doing the split dose for the first time so have no idea what to expect. Any words of wisdom or calmness?

Hi Lodge89. Im not coeliac but my stomach certainly does not like gluten. Get itchy skin, bloated, wind, cramps and nausea. I definitely feel better for being largely gluten free (donuts are worth the pain [emoji5] ) if you arent coeliac then cross contamination wont do much harm at all.

Inflexible is exactly the word! I was hoping to change to levemir at my next review. Need something that reacts better than toujeo does!

Im on novorapid and toujeo. Toujeo has a 36hr profile so i think im just afraid any form of exercise or anything and im going to go low. I know its really silly! I just cant get out of the mindset!

Thanks Mel dCP. Must look into investing in a CGM. Would be a great help!

Hi mountaintom. Roughly get between 4-6hrs which isnt too bad!

Hi mountaintom. No I dont like to do that as my sugars would go into double digits and not comfortable with long term issues that would arise from that. Im generally sitting in the high 6s or 7s for bed but just afraid they'll drop! Its just paranoia on my part

Lol I def do too trust me! Lol I dont know why ive become like this, mayb just habit now!

Guys, do any of you become afraid about your sugars when you are asleep? Ive been diabetic 7 years and in all that time ive had may 2 night hypos yet i set alarms to wake me every few hours as im so afraid of not waking up. I realise that this is extreme and wondered does anyone feel the same or...

Hi Mel dCP. No I havent heard of this! Must check this out :-)

Funny you mention those foods michita, pasta is a real b*tch!! Keeps raising my bgs despite trials and splitting dose!

Hi All The time has come for me to lose some weight (natures duvet is cosy in winter...not cute in summer!) And I have seen a lot of you do low carb. Is it difficult to maintain? Im very aware of hypos and understand there'll be a change in basal dosage. Im just overcautious with any change tbh...

I use cerazette which mimics the injection only in pill form. Ive had 1 period in 5 years and no change in my bgs!

Hi everyone. Thanks so much! Definitely do not want to void any insurance by not declaring. Will hopefully get it sorted next week and have my wheels!! Beep beep!

Thank u so much!!!!

Hi guys. I recently passed my driving test (Im 34 so a bit behind the times lol). Ive spotted a car I like but when getting insurance quotes it asks about licence restrictions due to disability. Do we as type 1 have no restrictions or is it a 3 year restricted licence? So confused!!
